Among the Shelby GT's top traits is "production is limited in
volume, assuring its exclusivity." When Shelby GT comes out the
other side, the 4.6-liter V-8 makes 319 horsepower, a gain of 19
ponies over a Mustang GT. Extra hardware includes a cold-air
intake; a slightly more aggressive engine-computer tune, a
high-flow exhaust; a welcome inch-and-a-half drop with stiffer
shocks, springs, and anti-roll bars front and rear; and the
optional 5 speed manual short-throw Hurst shifter. The GT wears the
GT-H's brushed aluminum grille, and the hood gets a riveted-on
scoop. No amount of wheel time behind teenager-owned Civics can
prepare you for the GT's short shifter. The cue-ball-topped Hurst
lever literally takes inches out of the shifter's movement. The
factory lowered suspension and is far more buttoned down, with less
body roll. The free-breathing V-8 sounds fantastic and feels
strong. The Shelby will do burnouts for weeks, and it's easy to
control and slide around like a hero. Why are people so gung-ho
about this latest Shelby? We can't explain it, nor can we remember
the last time we were driving something that attracted this much
attention. Come see the list of options on the window sticker still
